I believe you had been complaining about how complicated it was to set up virtio? And this complexity is also an issue if we want to use it to initialize the RNG used for the kernel text ASLR --- which has to be done very early in the boot process, and where making something as simple as possible is a Good Thing. And since we would want to use RDRAND/RDSEED if it is available *anyway*, perhaps in combination with other things, why not use the RDRAND/RDSEED interface? - Ted -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
